![]() How you doin’? Do you find that you have more time to test new recipes these days? Here’s one of my favorite lighter recipes from China Rose my Arlington, Texas restaurant—made with fresh American produce. I love minced chicken lettuce wraps. They are low in carbs and I can stuff my face without any guilt whatsoever. This is the easiest, quickest, healthiest meal you could ever make. If you have good moves in the kitchen, you can easily get this on your dinner table in less than 15 minutes. Plus, it’s budget friendly, too! You can easily double or triple this recipe as needed. Prep time: 9 minutes Cook time: 6 minutes Yield: 4 servings Ingredients For the lettuce cups 1/2 head of iceberg lettuce, leaves separated into cups and washed For the Gai Soong stir-fry sauce 1 tablespoon sherry wine 2 tablespoons oyster sauce 1 teaspoon sesame oil 1/2 teaspoon sugar 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce 1/8 teaspoon white pepper 1 teaspoon corn starch 1/2 teaspoon chili oil For the chicken filling 2 tablespoons peanut oil 3/4 cup chicken, uncooked, minced (thigh meat recommended; see ChefSecret) 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced 1/3 cup fresh oyster or brown mushrooms, minced 2/3 cup bamboo shoots, minced 2/3 cup water chestnuts, minced 2/3 cup celery, minced 1 teaspoon red jalapeño peppers, minced 1/3 cup green onions, minced (tops and bottoms) Directions

![]() … from the California Kitchen How you doin’? By the number of responses we’ve been getting, I assume our readers are getting used to living in quarantine—hard to believe it’s only been 35 days. I’m happy to see that many of our friends have taken up cooking. Half of us are going to come out of quarantine as amazing cooks—the other half will come out with a weight and/or drinking problem. We will have to learn to practice social-distancing from the refrigerator. That said I thought it best to offer a lighter option for the menu. My friend Martha in Carefree, Arizona asked for an egg or chicken recipe. The Spring Garden Crustless Quiche is healthful, Keto-compliant and very tasty. This is one of our favorite summer brunch recipes from our Palm Grill restaurant in San Francisco—the original California Kitchen. It’s a great recipe to make when springtime vegetables are fresh, plentiful and inexpensive. You can use a little less kale if you prefer a fluffier quiche. Prep time: 20 minutes Bake time: 50 minutes Cool time: 5 minutes Yield: 4 to 6 servings Ingredients 1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 yellow onion, minced 3 cloves garlic, minced 5 cups chopped kale (or a little less for a fluffier quiche) 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper, or to taste 1 cup diced tomato 1/2 cup shredded carrots (or other vegetable for Keto) 5 large eggs 3/4 cup half & half 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley Directions
